Uninstalling Your Modem

 

Three steps for easy installation!

  1. Install the modem.
  2. Turn off your notebook computer. Insert the modem into an empty PC card slot in your notebook. The top of the modem has an arrow indicating which end should be inserted into the notebook computer. Make sure that the modem is firmly seated in the PC card slot.

  3. Connect the phone cord.
  4. Push in on the XJACK connector to pop it out of the PC card. Connect one end of a standard RJ-11 phone cord to the XJACK connector and the other end to an analog telephone wall jack. Refer to this illustration:

     

  5. Install the drivers.
